"I have been stressing for a while with trying to decide what to do about years of erosion and damage from an Oak tree that I loved dearly. Darrell came out, walked the property, offered suggestions that made sense and worked within my budget. Job was completed (tree removed, retaining wall built to stop erosion and sodded) in less than one week. I have another tree to be removed and lawn sodded and I have my guy! Thanks Angi and Peachtwins!"

Customers say: Quality work

"Bigman Bobcat exceeded expectations. Larry was incredibly organized and professional upfront. Quotes and invoices were clear and detailed (big plus for me based on other experiences I've had on home repairs). Larry was flexible when I changed my mind for the type of gravel I wanted and arranged the ordering and delivery for my gravel and sod. Graded the backyard, prepped and laid the sod, laid the gravel. My backyard was covered in kudzu and weeds after years of neglect. Larry and his guys were SO detail oriented and cleared all of it! Great to work with and I highly recommend!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

It can take several weeks for the ground to settle after removing a tree, and the soil under larger, more mature trees can take months. The deeper the tree has been ground under the soil, the longer it will take to settle. However, this extra depth can help you plant new landscaping sooner because you’ll have more space for fresh soil.

The cost to repair a crawl space runs between $1,500 and $15,000, depending on the extent of the damage. Major flooding or water repairs can cost up to $10,000 for removal and repairs. If you simply need to clean your crawl space, expect to pay between $2,000 and $6,000 for a major cleanout. Replacing a crawl space beam due to rot or damage can cost between $1,500 and $5,000, while removing and replacing damaged insulation costs between $1,000 and $4,000.

To drill a shallow well, you may be able to use a drive well point. This is a tapered point that is driven into the ground. A drill bit at the end of PVC pipe may be another option to consider. A lot of the cost depends on what tools are available near you.

The average cost of excavation is approximately $3,200, with typical projects ranging from $500 to $15,000. Depending on the contractor, you may be charged between $50 and $200 per cubic yard or an hourly rate of $40 to $180 for an excavation specialist. The total cost is influenced by several factors, including the project size, the amount of soil to be removed, and the soil's condition. Hard soil, tree roots, or excessive rocks and clay can increase the price, potentially adding $200 to $1,200 to the final bill. Other factors that can drive up costs include the presence of nearby structures that complicate the work or tight spaces that require manual excavation instead of heavy machinery.

Yes, trenchers can go through gravel. Gravel is made up of smaller, softer rocks that certain trenchers are able to cut through. Just be sure to use a rock wheel trencher or chain trencher, both of which are made to cut through rocky landscapes and gravel pathways without dulling the teeth or chain.
